You pick it up first.

I'm surprised that this wasn't the first answer posted to the question.

exomni:
Am I to understand Faye makes $6500 dollars in a week? Or was the decimal point misplaced by two places?

Even in that case she's still making $650 a week, which isn't too damn shabby for a café clerk. I sure as hell never made that much. Even at $12 an hour you'd have to work more than 50 hours a week to make that much. That's 8 hours a day seven days a week. I guess I'm just a lazy bum. Or I guess Faye part-owns the place and they don't hire a lot of help??

Juniper Jade:
I just assumed she gets paid every 2 weeks.

plethora:
That's still not too bad. It's more than I get.

But the decimal point was out in one of Dora's original calculations. Which would affect all future calculations, so Faye's pay slip wasn't necessarily right-but-for-the-decimal-point.
Did that make sense to anyone but me? I can't think of another way to phrase it.

That would mean about 15k a year. Yeah, you can live on that easily.

However, in the first panel she implies that her payday is once every week.

I think I'm to understand Faye makes close to 35k a year ringing up coffees. Damn, I wish I could get in on that.



Perhaps she gets paid once a week but some of her pay was behind or something, and her average check isn't for as much as $650 :? Or plethora's explanation.
